Earlier this moth I was asked to share some of the rules I live my life by as part of the Appletiser 'Get your Sparkle On' campaign. If you follow me on Instagram you may have already seen the posts that I and other Australian bloggers have been sharing with the hashtag #appletisersparkle.

Here is a round up of my personal rules plus a photo of the lovely gift hamper of cupcakes and sparklers I received in the mail! Scroll down to read my rules and for details on how to enter the $200 Peeptoe Shoes voucher giveaway.

Rule #1 Don't forget to treat yourself

Rule #3 Put your time and energy to good use - on the things that make you happy

comments | Rules I live by + $200 giveaway! (CLOSED)

1) Even if you have never done it before, it doesn't mean you can't do it, you just need to try/learn.

- this rule has led me to get jobs I never thought I would. Nope, I have never done up a PR plan, but heck, I am willing to learn!

2) Never say no to an invite

- whether it be to a friend's birthday or to a work conference, say yes. Aside from the free food and drink (always a bonus!) you never know who you will meet. Some of the best opportunities come from going to an event where you don't quite know anyone!

3) Where ever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine

I love your blog, style and outfits, they make me jealous cause you are so blooming gorgeous and cute!! I like rule 5 of yours the most as I don't do this enough. The one rule I live my life by is to listen to others comments and ideas as this will help you immensely.

I love this quote (especially for the troubles that have occurred as of late): "when you feel that you cannot go any further, just know that the strength which carried you this far will take you the rest of the way".

1) You can't change what people will think about you so stop trying2) Give more than you take3) Actions speak louder than words4) If you make an effort with your appearance, you will feel brighter and more confident5) A splash of red in an outfit is always fabulous!s4177198@student.uq.edu.au

Love how the sparkler looks in that photo! One of the rules I try to live by is this quote by Goethe: “Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.” I have this quote on a fridge magnet, and keep it near my computer to motivate me whenever I start procrastinating.

My rule? It's a new one but I'm working on it: if it doesn't scare you, it's not worth doing. (Fortunately, I only remember this when I'm actually frightened so it never stops me from eating cake or having a nap or something.)

Wow, I love your rules, they are all so true! My rule is: stay positive. Even though everything goes wrong, there will always be that one thing that can make you happy, and hold on to that happy thing throughout the unhappy period.Another rule: SMILE. (makes your brain think you are happy, eventhough you are not. I really love the science thing about it, but I actually simply love to smile. Makes me happy.)xo Noornoor.01234567 [at]hotmail.com
